Once I have them, I will share with you the below mentioned three documents:
Letter of Engagement– This is a formal engagement letter, as SEBI Regulations require. If you agree to the terms, please use Aadhar-based OTP for the e-singing of the engagement letter.
Data Collection Sheet – This is an Excel template where you will provide details about your current financial status, including family information (financial dependents), goals, income, expenses, assets, liabilities, etc.
Risk Profiling Questionnaire – This is an editable PDF questionnaire with a multiple-choice question-answer format. You must download the pdf, choose the best-suited answer for all the questions, and send it to me for analysis to understand your risk appetite.

Planning – I will prepare a financial plan with the data you provided after our data collection meeting. I take 2-3 weeks to study your case and prepare a customized financial plan thoroughly.
Execution – Once you receive the plan, I encourage you to review it thoroughly and list any questions or concerns.
In our next meeting, I will take you through the plan and address your queries to the best of my abilities. Once you clearly understand the plan, you can proceed with its implementation.
As I follow Fee-Only Financial Planning, implementing the financial plan is your (client’s) responsibility. However, I will assist you if you face difficulties during the implementation process.
I encourage connecting to address any of your queries related to implementation support when needed. Formally, we meet semi-annually, where I will address below:
a) How well have you implemented the plan, and if any missing action needs to be taken care of?
b) How are your investments doing?
c) Understand if there is any change in your financial situation and clarify any doubts.
I follow the annual review process for your financial plan. Upon renewal, I will review your goal’s progress.
Please note that even after I deliver the financial plan, you can always contact me during the one-year engagement period to discuss any matters related to personal finance, investing, or your financial planning.
Apart from the above, I will address any changes in your financial goals, cash flow, or any life situation impacting your financial plan as and when they occur. Your evolving needs are my priority.
